Ris-Hearfed Miners.
81 fnet,a Mr.. Davis IN Butte. Ho

Il fnet'a q Mr. Davis in Butte. He Is
the ira fss manager Of the Norther,,
Pacific road, and he told me q fine
story, characteristic OF those big
hearted miners. Mr. Davis had taken
his aged father and mother up into
the heights Of one OF the mountains
that; shadow Butte. It was fifteen
miles distant. While thsy were camp.
ng there,a snow-storm swept upon
them and the sudden change caused
Mr.. lavis's father to suffer from an
attack, Of paralysis. The old gentle-
man was helpless, and his son was
parplexed. He was. fifteen miles from
civiiizatioR, and had no conveyance
to reach it. He happened to remem-
ber~ that not far away on the
mountain side was a camp of
miners. He walked to the camp
aud found them there just sitting
DOWN alter their meal to game Of
cards. He apologlzed for intruding
upon. them and said: Boys, am in
trouble The cards fell out of their
hands, and they were on their feet
ready for his relief. He told them his
story, well, stranger, said the lead
er, we'll git the old man down the
mountain safe and sound; but you'll:
have to git the old woman down the.
best you can, cause, you know, was
amt ust to handlin' women are We.
boys? And at the mention of q.
woman's name the speakers hard
hand went up to his eyes, but in
second he recovered and said to Ms.
Davis. You lead the way and we'll
foller.'
They toiled up the mountain uzatil
they came to the hut where the old
people were housed. At the sight of
the lady the miners of them
punched themselves Just as q lot of
freight cars that come to q sudden
halt. Every hat was of. Having
made their bows they gathered
about the old man and looked up-
on him as they folded their
hands, as if he were dead. Thea they
wrapped him in blankets and picked
him up and gently wound aroand the
mountain, picking out the. smooth
places. never saying a word When
they reached the level and the old
man had been laid upon his bed, Mr..
Davis took the miners to one side and
said: Men, here is roll al bills-all
I have-take it no matter how much
it may be.
The old miner who had done all the
talking for the crowd took off his hat
and spoke:
Why, we thought yoa know'd u.s.
4 do know you, sad Davis.
:" But we thought you know'd us
well. No, stranger. put her up. Why.
we wouldn't let that old man suffer
up thar q minnit. Would we, boys?'
And they all raised their hats. EASY.
boys, said the speaker. And they
shouted, but it was soft and low
shout, which brought tears to Davis
eyes. Chicago Mail.

Will be memorable one to the delegates.
At II O'clock Mr. Davitt was escorted into

very cordial greeting from the delegates
Mr. Powderly took the hand of Mr.. Dayitt

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
The Great Labor Organization Represented BY
$50 Delegates, Assembled In Minneapolis.

Reception and Preliminary Meeting-Addresses
and Responses By Various Orators.
The Knights OF Labor Assembly at Min
neapclis on Monday the Sd inst, was one
OF the most interesting bodies ever gather.
ed in that city. A peculiar interest at
taches to these $50 representatives Of the
great la boring masses of the United States,
who, largely through the agency of this
particular organization, have made their
influence felt in the realms.of politics and
commerce within a few years, as never be-
fore.
The opening meeting in the morning was
held at the Washington Rink, which holds
10000 people. Mr.. John p. McGaughey
presided. Mayor Ames and a. number Of
the distinguished members OF the conven-
tion occupied seats on the platform. Mr.
McGlaughey called upon Mayor Ames to
make the address Of welcome in behalf OF
the city. The mayors remarks were geni-
al and characteristic.
Mr.. Richard Griffiths OF Chicago, a vet
eran worker in the order, in appropri-
ate terms acknowledged the warm recep-
tion that had been rendered the delegates
and the kind greetings OF the mayer. Mr.
A. A. Carleton OF Massa chusetts a member
OF the general executive board also spoke.
Mr.. Ralph Beaumont, one OF the most
distinguished members OF the order, was
next called upon. He spoke with great
ease and elegance. He made some very
graceful and well. turned allusions to Min
neap oils. He referred to the various
stages OF success and despondency in the
history OF the order and asserted that if
this organization goes down it will only
be to sive place to another mightier than
this, for as long as injustice remains in the
land the struggle will be maintained.
The next speaker was Mr. Richard Trev-
ellich, one OF the most powerful speakers
in the order, synopsis of his remarks
would give a faint idea OF their impressive
ness. In conclusion he said: ''We come
here with the olive branch OF peace in our
hands. Let no act OF yours bring disgrace
upon the great body. Let your words and
proceedings have in them wisdom and dig
nifty, be a worthy example even for tho
great congress OF our country
At the evening meeting some 10000 per-
sons were present. Mr.. McGaughey pre-
sided.
Richard Travellick of Detroit was called
to the front. His address was a powerful
and eloquent explanation OF the mission
OF the Knights OF Labor.

GRAND MASTER PowDERLY,

When Mr.. Powderly came forward to
speak the cheering was deafening.
The speaker made strong appeal to
his hearers to advance and take the sta
tion in the world which belongs to them
by right and which they are so competent
to fill. He expressed his. confidence in the
right and justice of the principles which un-
derile the order, and his unabated courage
in its future. All the opposition and all
the abuse he had received had not changed
him in the least. And then he had good
word for the kickers.
Mr.. Powderly predicted time when all
wosking men would be organized under one
head and lead against one common foe.
He made touching allusion to Thomas
a. Armstrong, of the Pittsburg Labor
Tribune, whose death was announced Sun.
day evening.
At the close OF Mr.. Powderly's address
resolutions eulogstic OF Mr.. Armstrong
were adopted.
President A. J. streeter OF the National
dress on the subject. ''The Peoole: Their
Government" He said that while he did
not take the character OF the chronic
grumbler, still it fell to him to show IN
some OF the evils OF the times. He referred
particularly to the deplorable condition
Of the farmers OF Illinois, his own state.
."Ihey are overwhelmed by debt he said,
"and the prospects OF paying their debts
are poor"
On Tuesday there were numerous ar
rivals OF belated Knights. The first and
only matter taken up during the day was
the report OF the committee on credentials.
The report occupied the morning and aft
er noon ses sions
MICHAEL DAv1Tr AND THE KNIGHTS.
The session of the Knights was rather
abruptly terminated at l 1 o'clock Yesterday
forenoon. The Hon. Michael Davitt. one of
the leading and most telling workers in be-
half of Ireland, had arrived late Tuesday
night He was soon in the hands of Master
Workman Powderly, and the suggestion chat
the business of the convention be tenn
porarily suspended in order to give the dis
tinguished Irishman an opportunity to
address the delegates met with the hearty
concurrence Of every delegate The recep-
tion which the great home ruler got could
not have been heartler or pleasanter It
could not have been more spontaneous
outburst of approval had the convention
been constituted entirely of men Of Mr..
